Re: [PHP] x as a multiplier
Is it possible you're mistaken somehow? x isn't an operator in PHP. Executing $a x $b will give you a parse error. Anything in quotes is automatically casted as a string. -Kevin - Original Message - From: John Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 3:20 PM Subject: [PHP] x as a multiplier Code: $newwidth . x . $newheight What I want to get out is a string, like 89x115.

Re: [PHP] x as a multiplier
I don't think he's trying to multiply, I think he wants to print #x#, like 800x600 or 1024x768, etc...

Not sure what you mean here, you say you only get one number, but it
prints out fine?
However, this gives exactly what you want:
code
pre?php
$a = 1024;
$b = 768;
$s = $a . 'x' . $b;// create a string
echo $s;
echo \n{$a}x{$b}\n; // or print it directly
?
/pre
/code
Output for both cases:
1024x768
1024x768

Re: [PHP] x as a multiplier
Adam, I know this. In reaction to the subject of John's post I cleared up the fact that x can not be acting as a multiplier becuase it is not an operator. My suggestion was that there may something else in his code that is causing the confusion.. making it look like it's doing something that it's not actually doing. Does that make more sense? :-\ John, please copy and paste the output of the following experiment.. $a = 1; $b = 2; echo $ax$b; echo $a.x.$b; echo $a.'x'.$b; -Kevin - Original Message - From: John Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 3:59 PM Subject: RE: [PHP] x as a multiplier Exactly.
